Rock Falls Raceway aerial view
« on: November 19, 2015, 10:48:12 PM »
Rock Falls Raceway near Eau Claire, Wis. was purchased by a new owner this fall and the new owner jumped right in with repaving the track and pouring new concrete and extending the concrete much further. The track also did some misc. work widening the shut down area and the turn off roads among other things. Our mild fall in this area of the country helped them getting the work done and it's really looking good so far. It will be interesting to see what the future brings. Aerial drone video footage was taken this week, here's the link for anyone interested.

That is awesome!  It will be nice to have two full shutdown lanes, instead of them merging into one at the end.  Maybe with all that concrete work we won't get to call it Slippery Rock anymore... ;D

Good news! We will have a nice track to go practice for Drag Week!  Maybe we should start lobbying Hot Rod and the new owner of Rock Falls to make it a stop on Drag Week 2016. :)
